Detail 01
14-inch Vintage Equilibrium hi-hats
Closed playing has a crisp, defined chick; opening the hats brings a warm, controlled sound.

Independent shopping perspective
Built around Matt Garstka’s selected cymbals, this four-piece Byzance set covers tightly defined hi-hat work, quick crash accents, a forceful China voice, and a dry, clear ride response. The 14-inch hi-hats keep the closed sound crisp while controlling the open sound. An extra-thin 18-inch crash answers quickly, while the 20-inch China brings a trashier, more complex contrast. The 22-inch ride supplies articulate stick presence and a focused bell.
